Article Synopsis
- Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular parasite that infects warm-blooded animals, including humans, and exhibits significant genetic diversity in South American strains.
- Researchers assessed T. gondii prevalence in free-ranging chickens in northwest Parana, Brazil, using two serological tests, resulting in 30.8% of samples testing positive for the parasite.
- The study successfully isolated 18 T. gondii strains and identified ten genotypes, including four new types, highlighting the need for further research on the potential zoonotic transmission of this parasite from chickens.
